But in general, the C2 with feel lighter on its front end and the C4 steering will feel a little more "numb"... but in these 997s its hard to even call it "numb". As far as speed and acceleration goes, I can't tell a difference one way or another. Maybe on a track you'll notice the differences, but on the street it doesn't make a difference at all. The one advantage you'll definitely get is the slightly noticeable wider rear end. That's one aspect most all 6 speeders won't argue about. I haven't heard anyone on these forums say... "I prefer the looks of the narrow body". But there's always a first. Good luck with your decision.
I prefer the looks of the narrow body...nothing wrong with being the first (which I can't believe though....)

To me, the aft end of the 4S is da' bomb. But as a drivers car, the RWD car wins for me. Lighter and more connected feel. All of these cars are getting too heavy. I'd want to avoid adding more. And it's not like the 2S is unattractive...

Did you 'feel the wind over your head' when you read my Hurley Haywood comment? Just my sick humor. Hurley was one of the best Porsche drivers in his (no pun intended) hayday. I believe he still does a good deal of vintage racing events and maybe some endurance partnering events as
well.

A c4s is is the same as a c2s just wider by about 1 inch I belive, so the c4s is a better buy.
